I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at HomeWerks (Naperville, IL) in Oct 2022
Interview
Warning! Make sure the job you interview for is the same you applied for. I made it through to a second in person interview to learn that I was actually being interviewed for a different position and location, which included a totally different compensation and training profile. My initial phone interview was for the job I applied for posted on -line. My second interview was in person and still matched the role I applied for. My final interview was then switched to a different role.
I would think all the people involved in the hiring process should be in the loop together??? Why would they think someone would be ok with that??
I would have appreciated a phone call prior to me driving to an interview 40 minutes away to then receive a generic email 2 hours after my interview letting me know I no longer was being considered for the job.
Coincidentally, the role I applied for conveniently disappeared from the on-line job site that afternoon as well.
I am a professional, being in sales for over 20 years and have never had such an unprofessional experience. Actually, not sure if it was unprofessional or arrogance? Just be mindful and ask A LOT of questions!

Interview
I was contacted by one individual and interviewed initially over the phone. I was offered an in person interview and when I showed up it was a completely different person that had no idea of the information shared during the initial phone call.
Then there were some questions about my qualifications. The remainder and majority of the interview was him telling me how awesome he was.

Question 1
How much did I know about construction (electrical, plumbing, etc) while the position was for a cabinet designer. So not super relevant
Part of the role of a cabinet designer is to understand how the electrical and plumbing hookups impact the placement of the cabinets. Its unfortunate that was not made clear to you during the interview.
